Ten months later
"I want a girl" Kabeer said rubbing my now huge belly and I rolled my eyes "I want a boy" I said and he scoffed "Should we make a deal?" He asked and I gasped staring at him like he's crazy and slapping his hand away "Not with a baby" I growled and he frowned rubbing his hand "I want chocolate chips" I blurted "Not again" he stomped his feet and went to grab it

"Here" he handed it over and I kissed his cheek "Good boy" I said patting his him "Good night" he said adjusting himself on the bed, half of his body disappearing in the duvet "Night night" I said soothingly munching on my snack. I've always loved sleeping on my chest but right now it's hard to sleep on my back and when I try sleeping on my sides I use pillows lot of them or I use Kabeer as my human pillow but today nothing's working, not even the giant teddy he got me for my birthday, I mean I'm not actually a toy lover but that teddy is super comfy.

"Arghh" I screamed frustrated, nothing's really working tonight and Kabeer is sleeping comfortably, How dare him? "Kabeer?" I called out but instead I was responded by light snores, no lies I know he's been working really hard during my pregnancy but who's fault? The baby's!

"KABEER!" I called louder and he grunt "Hmm?" He responded still sleeping, maybe I should pity him I thought and let him be. I finally got comfortable and was ready to sleep but then the kicking of the baby woke me and I groaned, placing my hand on the beat of my stomach "Please let mama sleep, okay?" I pleaded rubbing my belly and the kicking faint, my lazy eyes dropped in no time

I was woken by the continuous kicking in my belly and I groaned "If I don't sleep, your papa don't sleep too" "KABEER!" I called shaking him thoroughly "Uh? What is it?" He asked lazily and I smirked "I want noodles" I replied and he groaned "You'd have noodles in the morning" he said resting his head on the pillow "I want it now" I folded my arms, he punched his pillows several times and he got up as I tailed behind

He started with the noodles and I sat looking at him, he looked really angry. "What are you doing?" I asked him smiling "What does it look like tho?" He replied with a question "Cooking?" I asked and he rolled his eyes "Why are you so angry?" I asked frowning and he paused for a bit "Because.." He started "BECAUSE I'M TIRED SALIMA! I'M TIRED, ALL YOU DO IS SIT AROUND AND SEND ME ON ERRANDS LIKE I'M YOUR SLAVE. SLEEPING IS HARD FOR ME THESE DAYS, YOU'RE MAKING THINGS VERY COMPLICATED FOR ME, YOU ACT LIKE YOU'RE THE ONLY WOMAN WHO HAS EVER GOTTEN PREGNANT" He screamed at the top of his lungs, my heart skipped beats as tears made their way down my cheeks, he seemed to have realised what he just blurted, guilt written all over his face "I..I'm sorry" he stuttered trying to hold my hand and I snatched it away from him roughly, raising my hand as a sign for him not to touch me and I made my way to the gas and set my plate

"What are you doing?" He asked and after a long awkward silence I replied "Helping myself" I grabbed my plate and went to sit with a Bismillah I started on the food "Let me feed you" he requested, it had always been our habit of feeding each other "No thanks" I declined "Come on, don't make it harder than it already is, let me feed you" he said walking up to me "I don't need your help" I blurted "Don't be like that" he said grabbing my fork and I stood racing to our room, I was going to switch rooms but I'm not in the mood for his stupid pleas

I went to the restroom and wiped my last tear drop, I washed my face briefly and went to lay, I saw he was already in the room, I tried ignoring his presence and made my way to the bed "Don't touch me" I said as his hand snaked around my waist but withdrawing immediately after my words, as I faced my back on him.

I know it's pretty late but I still can't sleep, this time not because of the baby's kicking but by Kabeer's words, it kept replaying in my head and it hurts because I thought we're in this together, I closed my eyes hoping I'd forget and sleep "I'm sorry" he said but I ignored anyways
